Yes, that makes perfect sense. We went all double-0-secret to turn ourselves in. It's genius! The perfect turn-in! How did a tomahawk nation beat writer figure this conspiracy out??
Interesting article. I would point out that there's no way Walker would be in a position to know who turned him in. He's just making an assumption. I can make an argument with equal weight that it couldn't possibly be Bama, because if we had known, we wouldn't have been recruiting a player with a fake class. My bet would be Miami. It should be noted that the article is in an FSU fan publication. I thought they were rather eager to play up the Bama angle - and then I looked at the header...
True. The statement in the article that Bama could have set up the fake class and then turned Walker in out of pique is about some of the most paranoid nonsense I've ever read. Sure, we like turning ourselves in. Idiots...
FSU - the Gators & Miami have been throwing this stuff at each other for decades. My bet would be one of those two.
Also, wasn't it JP's responbility while at Bama to make sure the kid was good to go?

Yes because a guy who went from being an assistant high school football coach to defensive coordinator of FSU and making 540,000+ a year is super angry...
Yeah, and in what - 7-8 years? After reading his remarks, I'm afraid that he thinks it's strictly because of his brilliance...Yes because a guy who went from being an assistant high school football coach to defensive coordinator of FSU and making 540,000+ a year is super angry...
So the kid really believes Alabama turned him in on this alleged "fake" class (still under investigation it seems) because they were that upset at losing him? Do they have a helmet big enough for this kid's ego? I'm sure the coaches were disappointed, but by turning him in that would be admitting they knew the class was fake. Did Alabama notify the SEC? the NCAA? Florida State? By all accounts, no. Pruitt was his recruiter, wouldn't he also have known about this? Possibly even arranged for the class? Seems like a whole lot of damage to inflict on your program over sour grapes.
That was my reaction as well. I would like to know his logic (if there is any) or who told him what (if anyone actually did). My first I wonder was if Pruitt told him that Alabama was up to this. Lots of holes in any logic to think anyone at Alabama could gain anything by doing this unless the thought process was to get back at Pruitt somehow. I know there is a lot of bad blood going around in this deal, but good grief.
It makes no sense for Alabama to turn Walker in on fake classes because it would beg the question of Alabama's role in him participating in said classes. If Alabama had this knowledge, why would they recruit him? Might raise suspicion on other Alabama transcripts.
Some fans lack high-level thinking.
